If the information system macro defines a default system identifier, it is recommended to use this identifier for the binding. Users then do not need to type the identifier to the macros explicitly.

In situations where this system default identifier is already in use in a space with a different meaning, use the following syntax to specify the system with a space property:

url-{system-id}

The key with the url-Prefix is always checked first.

The following examples shows the definition of three information systems as space properties.

Check if the default configuration (as specified in information-system-autoconvert-hint Autoconvert Hint) will work for you. This is especially the case if you do not use the generic information systems to link to images or text resources.

If you can go with that configuration is much simpler - since nothing has to be done.

Note that if you specify one system, default systems are no longer defined.

The following examples shows how to bind information systems by their identifier to autoconverters.

Whenever a user pastes in the given space an URI with the prefix https://build.example.com/images/xmi an instance of the Enterprise Architect Image Link Macro is created. URIs with the prefix https://scs.example.com/images are stored in a System Image Link Macro.
